    It's on the deluxe version. It just doesn't fit in with the R&B/Pop fusion on the main album. She sang 16 second acapella snippets of the album on social media and people put it into a video. F-Ojc96tb2I

    AbhYHtcw45Q In terms of long hiatuses that aren't self-imposed, this is on its way to becoming one of the best ever. Seems like this album will be incredible.
  3. JoJo is actually doing worse in the US... Wonder what it would take for her to get playlisted here. It could clearly be a big hit.

    Queen JoJo. :D

    lawd, Say Love is epic. It just grows and grows.

    Yep. She has gotten quite a bit of publicity and airtime with this comeback too. I think in any other situation, she would be completely washed up and finished. But because she started so young and is still so young, at worst she's a new artist with far more connections than any other new artist. All she needs is one hit, and Good Thing could certainly be it in the UK. They're safe and generic, but perhaps that's what she needs. She needs to get back on the radio with When Love hurts and maybe Save My Soul too, then she can go for the big hit with Good Thing.

    Good Thing (obviously written and produced with MNEK) sounds unreal. She said she will be coming to the UK to promote - surely this has to be the song. https://soundcloud.com/user-686079229-63110...tigerheat-82015
  8. She still has a fanbase in the US, and now a major label push. Which is why i'm interested to see if any US success would translate across the pond. Her label essentially went bankrupt and couldn't release any music but refused to release her from her contract for years, which is why she sued out. They've spitefully taken her first album off Spotify, which is why it's hard to find.
  9. Pop/R&B powerhouse JoJo is finally making her triumphant return after suing out of her old label, Blackground, that inhumanely kept her hostage for over 6 years. At midnight she will make her major label debut, releasing three singles at once (hashtag tringle) under new label Atlantic: When Love Hurts, Save My Soul and Say Love. Will any eventually stick to become her 5th UK hit or is she washed up and forever forgotten at the ripe old age of 24? The tringles: http://www.iamjojoofficial.com/ Previous hits: 2004: Leave (Get Out) - #4 Baby It's You - #8 2006: Too Little Too Late - #2 2007: Anything - #21 Albums JoJo and The High Road both certified Gold

    Um. You should really go back and listen to it between now and midnight. Without any hyperbole, that second album is a classic. If you don't believe me, listen to Nicki: https://twitter.com/nickiminaj/status/207624894584864769 And I think the III denotes the tringle. She said she hasn't yet decided on an album name.
  11. Golowhore posted a post in a topic in Pop and Country
    They're all a worldwide release. The only difference, I think, is that only When Love Hurts will be "initially" sent to US Pop radio. I think her label believes this is the type of song that would get her played on the radio. But the reaction so far has almost unanimously placed Save My Soul as the best of the tringles, and it definitely could smash. I would rage if she ever gets booked for a performance on a big stage and she performed When Love Hurts over SMS. Any high profile performance of Save My Soul would easily be one of the best pop performances in years.
  12. JoJo is releasing three singles at once on August 21st: "Say Love", "Save My Soul" and "When Love Hurts". The latter will be the main single.
  13. Golowhore posted a post in a topic in Pop and Country
    It's not "triangle"; they're marketing these songs as a "tringle" (llike single, but three). The singles are called "When Love Hurts", "Save My Soul" and "Say Love". And the release doesn't sound messy - only "When Love Hurts" will be propped up, sent to (US) radio, etc. So far, it seems like they're actually handling it well. She has already started radio promo in the US and it will fully kick off after Friday. Also, the album is finished and just needs to be mastered, pefected, etc.. Since the anouncement, she has been holding small listening parties with fans in the US, showing them the tringle songs and a few others. All the feedback has been genuinely positive. Say Love: It’s a mid-tempo Pop/R&B track that showcases her vocals flawlessly. At the end there was this dope riff thing and I found myself saying “Well damn!!” so loud she looked at me and laughed. Save My Soul: Another mid-tempo song she wrote as a reflection of addition. She spoke about being raised by two alcoholic parents and that AA was just a common thing growing up. She wanted to talk about her own thoughts on it and said she gets emotional when she hears it. She spoke about the infinity tattoo she has on he wrist that is a quote as well. It’s still catchy and open for interpretation for all, but the guitars flow on this track so well. I can see a lot of people overlooking it, but its good. When Love Hurts: When Love Hurts bops SO hard. That was the last #tringle song she played for us before she went into some album tracks. It's pop with house influence, and her vocals slayed so ****ing hard. This is the song that will be sent to radio. She’s filming a video for this (and every Tringle song) when she gets back to LA and will pay homage to Paris is Burning. VERY poppy with a soul drive. We all will be grooving!! -- So, she played 5 songs off the new record - the 3 singles she's releasing next week and 2 other songs that weren't quite finished/mixed. The 3 singles were 3 very distinct sounds. One was a kind of R&B/pop power ballad called "Say Love," and it was AMAZING. The main single they're sending to radio is called "When Love Hurts," and it's got this crazy cool '90s deep house vibe and her vocals are insane. I'm totally blanking on the name of the other piece of the trifecta but it was recorded in Sweden, and has this really neat 80s sound - think Ariana's "Love Me Harder" on steroids. One of the unfinished songs was called "Like This" (she made a joke about how she has a record called "Like That" and now "Like This" lol) and it's a super smooth, sexy R&B track along the lines of "Demonstrate." The last song was called "Good Thing" and it was similar in sound to "When Love Hurts" - very 90s-inspired dance/house with power vocals. She made a point to say that while all these songs are different, the album as a whole will be a cohesive piece that flows from one song/sound to another. The music, from an honest and objective standpoint, is absolutely incredible and I KNOW it's going to be huge. I'm so excited for everyone to hear :) And performing When Love Hurts and Say Love. Though I doubt the recording does the former justice. 3-8UNemR6Ys rInlKgY3g4Q You can hear the production of When Love Hurts here: https://instagram.com/p/6dAzEdnC0K/?taken-by=iamjojo

    I don't like the song, but the production (which is his talent) is great and different to the standard dance-pop tracks right now. I think it will do well. He also said that he has a load of big collabs and is almost putting together a Timbaland-esque album so I'm interested to see what comes after this.
  15. Ugh. RIP is so bland and pointless. Horrible number one IMO. I hope Tulisa can peg her back after BGT.
  16. 0.3 3.8 3 Fun. - We Are Young (feat. Janelle Monáe) 0.4625 0.4500 4 Cover Drive - Sparks 0.4375 0.4000 Cover Drive are catching up to fun. I want that #3!
  17. lmfao, and NSync had 2 diamond albums in the states and sold far more in one era than in Justin's entire solo career. What a weird thing to say. What Justin and Beyonce have in common is that they were the lead singers and were the breakout solo stars of their group, but it's looking like all of them may surpass the group.
  18. Yeah. Fazer has his own solo single coming out in June. He is said to be working with some pretty high-profile names and doing a Timbaland-type record (since he's obviously a producer more than anything else), so that could easily happen assuming someone relevant is on the single.
  19. C'mon Tulisa and Cover.

    http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/singlesr....html#yourviews Disastuh is apparently being released on Sunday over here. Get your copies people, because she'll need all the help she can get. :(
  21. According to Digitalspy, JoJo - Disaster is out next week. :blink: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/singlesr....html#yourviews

    No, she's on both labels. They're both handling her - she's said countless times on twitter that she's still on blackground and I remember an interview where she spoke about there being a lot of differing and contrasting opinions in meetings. And I'm not disappointed about the mere fact that it hasn't smashed, but rather that it hasn't been handled well at all. It's just bizarre that the single was released all the way in september and they waited over a month to premier the video & give it an adds date, and by that time it wasn't in the top 1000 or whatever. It would have been fair enough if they had done everything right and the single just wasn't strong enough/she needed big promo. But it feels like it had a lot of potential but was a complete waste. But IDK, they seem to be just watching to see how the single fares before they put any money behind it. I imagine they will bring out something new/different in 2012 and we'll see what happens.
  23. Golowhore posted a post in a topic in Pop and Country
    It's all her label's fault. The song was comfortably top 40 with sales and it's now 42 on radio. Had they released the single, sent it to radio and premiered the video in the correct order/timeframe in addition to actually promoting it, it would have likely been at least a decent hit (there are so many people I've spoken to who love the song but didn't have any idea she was even releasing new music until I showed them). I do wonder if Blackground are purposely sabotaging her now because she took them to court. The label is just shady - I still remember what they did to Timbaland when he tried to sue them.

    Her earlier performances of disaster were done while she was sick and didn't have any time to properly rest her voice. But her recent performances have been fine, so...
